Phil Anselmo Loyola University Pt 7/7 

Watched all 7 (like any true fan did) and I have to say Phil is even more mature than I thought. Back again and full of energy and wisdom. Now I REALLY cant wait to see what the future of Down and Phil will be like.

With this one hour or so long interview, my life has forever changed for the better. Phil Anselmo has ALWAYS been an inspiration for my band and myself as a vocalist of the same category as Phil but today, Phil has become somewhat of an idol to me. He is truly a great man. Rock on brothers and sisters.

I saw pantera back in 92 and then constantly throughout the rest of the time they played together. Incredible band and just very sad to see things end the way they did. A lot of great memories from those shows and more importantly still a lot of great music to still listen to. Thanks for posting this....

love, love, love this interview. i cried several times. everything he spoke of about addiction is definitely true. phil anselmo rocks!

Thanks. what more can I say. These films have informed and educated me. I have been a Pantera fan for many many years. Phill is ,and will continue to be massivley telented. Thanks Phill.

Thanks for uploading this entire thing!!! I hope that everyone that has watched this will take every single word Phil said about addiction to heart & never travel down that dark & lonely path...I was addicted to pain killers for 5 yrs & God Bless him for coming out & letting young ppl know what it really does & what can happen just from "experimenting" with drugs or alcohol ..... ppl will brag about how good it makes them feel..but won't tell you how it makes them feel when they are LOWdopesick

Love and will..Brought him full circle to realize "a new level of power and consciousness." Phillip, your music and pen has galvanized many emotions within me. Whether your intent or not, you inspire LOVE through angst, honesty and energy. You may not be a man of faith in Christ, but your music provides catharsis for those of us who believe in Christ and seek to make our way in this world that bites from the shadows. Amen Brother..

Easily his best interview ever. He's a lot more deep than I originally thought. Thanks for posting this!

Ive learnt so much for the future by watching this. God bless u Phil.

i have had my fair share of drug problems and its so good to hear a positive voice from a person i look up too and knows first hand what its like to think of nothing but the drug. ive never touched heroin but an addiction is an addiction and ive beaten meth, extacy acid and any other prescription medication on hand. i now feel im not alone in the way my mind acts when i need a hit of whatever. thanks again this interview is the most invaluable clip ive ever watched on youtube

Preach on, Phil. Always been about personal integrity. Glad to see he's kept his life going and made some serious impact outside of his music, which itself has been huge for millions.

I have just sit and watched all 7 of these, and i have seen Pantera like 7 or 8 times, and they were the start of true heavy metal, no band brought it harder than them!! To see Phil like this and hear the way he talks about drugs, and life makes me even prouder that i followed them!! He is so true and so blunt, i love it, everyone should watch these! Much love and props to PHIL! ALWAYS HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST OF ALL TIME!! RIP DIMEBAG!!!

That made my night, was amazing & inspiring to listen to him. Got ALOT of respect for the man

I love the way he interacts, says a lot about him! Bless Him!

Phil! AMAZING! Out of all the awards-accolades, I think you deserve the biggest one for this INTERVIEW! YOU JUST HELPED MILLIONS OF PEOPLE/KIDS! SERIOUSLY. Almost 80,000 have viewed this, there will be hundreds of thousands more, take a look at some of your other videos, this one will catch on, kids will talk to one another, then this will take off, THANKS PHIL - I will be telling so many about this, THANK YOU :-)

Much respect to phil, he is one of the realist people you can meet, he has experienced the highest highs and the lowest lows. Its a miracle he is still alive. I am glad he seems like he is in such a good place in his life, and back on track. He is something else live aswell, seen Down twice over the summer and was in awe. I would love to meet him again as my first time was rediculous short. A legend in his own right man.

Greatest human ever. toughest mentality and will I have EVER seen. Well done Phil.

Watched all 7, amazing, could listen to this guy talk about anything

I've just finished watching all 7 parts and was really surprised to see an extremely honest, intelligent and soulfull Phil. I guess it was all circumstance which just got out of controll. He was just so bold and self confident and probably thought he'd never lose. To Phil; Your music still to this day helps me find strength when I'm low and now your words are also very inspiring. Some of the points raised appy to not only to drugs but excess of any nature...thanx Thanx for uploading!!!!!

Thanks for posting this! This is beyond heart-felt!!! Much respect to Phil!!

that was one of the best interviews i've seen in years . thank you

I didn't think I was going to watch the whole thing, but i did. Inspiring man!

its great to see he is doing something so positive with his life experiences ive got a lot of respect for that man..

Thank you for up-loading this talk session.

I was supposed to go to sleep an hour ago and then I found all seven parts of this interview. Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Phil...this is inspiring . Amazing speech.

this whole interview was a great watch.. thanks for uploading.

Just watched the whole video parts1 to 7 and i gotta say. I did love Phil Anselmo before but now i wont be able to go a singel day without listening to my BOUGHT records of Pantera, Down, Superjoint and so on. A very deep and interesting video this one. Just love it. Thanks so very much

blackiestuff thanks for sharing this 7 part interview, iv been a huge fan of pantera since 1992 & its cool seeing this side of phil, keep up the good work.

I have watched all 7. Thank You for sharing. We all be praying for Phil to stay strong hoping he can still make music. max (Polan

@1LSUredneck I agree with you, man. How people can watch the first one and not the whole lecture?!! This was the most honest, brutal, touching, beautiful and real thing I have ever seen. I've always been into Pantera, that's probably why it means so much, but just to hear Phil's voice, to see him tell these life stories was just really, really inspiring and thought provoking. I sat through the whole thing and will do again, many times

Most inspirational interviews I have ever seen. All praise do he is a HEAVY METAL god.

actually .. it was the best interview i've seen in years . .thanks again

I agree. He speaks with such... well amazingness.. Phil has got to be one of the smartest individuals on the planet. Hands down.

wish there'd been more time for questions - great talk and a great man x

What he says about doing it for yourself is absolutely true. I tried so many times to stop drinking, for my family, for my partner, for my kid, when she left me, I did it for me. Now I've been sober for over 2 years. My partner came back, we now have two kids and a house together. Phil Anselmo is the King. I love him to death.

Way to go mate. Congratulations on achieving sobriety. And all the best to you and your family. Phil is dead on. Doing something solely for others never works. The only person who can change or improve yourself is you. I learned that lesson too, many years ago.

If i could have an hour with phil it would be the best... THE BEST day of my whole life point blank

Thank you for posting all of these.

that was great, thanks for the upload! too bad the Q&A segment wasnt taped.

thanks Blackie! it's great to have Phil back! the great looking host was just icing on the cake!

That was so moving! I wish the questions would have gone on and on! It'd be cool if you could subtitle the questions you can't hear.

wow....Holy fuckin shit. This should be required veiwing for EVERYBODY - metal fan or not, Phil is just amazing here. He speaks about life, trials, pain and perserverance. I am blown the fuck away.

This was one of the greatest interviews I've seen in a long time. @ yuppyguitar - you're absolutely right.

Phil REALLY like to hear himself talk. Ya know, there are soo many top notch musicians in the world that have accomplished soo much more than he has or will and they would never talk about themselves in such high regard .... "My band is the best, heaviest, genre defining, end all be all....ect ect. He had his day and i suppose anyone asking him ANY question makes him hard cause at least then he can talk about himself..

loved it !!! made me realise again why i used to listen to a lotta pantera back in the day.

Hell yeah, keep rockin and supporting Phil!

I did the same thing...I thought it was great stuff. Excellent story-teller. Very personal and unique. Great job, Phil.

thanks for posting this, hope all is well with you! peace

I was choking back tears while watching this the whole way, just like that dreadful day, when I was at work and in the break room catching a smoke and the evening news spot and found out that Dimebag had been killed. I've had my friends and family all turn their backs on me and stop taking my calls. I've walked in the room and crashed those conversations that I wasn't supposed to hear - that's pain - for certain. I'm profoundly happy that Phil is alive today - he was there for me when no one

NOTHIN' BUT RAW TRUTH... a man with talent i wish i had. and i'm not the only one

Thanks for sharing Phil..your are an outstanding Person!!:)..your stronger than yourself!!

I just watched all of this... i love Phil, it takes a lot of balls to do that

Awesome words of wisdom from Phil.

I wish there was more... truly a great video... thanks BlackieStuff for posting/editing this...

I have 110 Pantera shows and 18 Down shows. Used to trade alot. Before there was a utube, it was the only way to get this stuff ;-) still prefer full shows on DVD though.

Thanks heaps for posting this, man. Phil is the best. Simple as that.

my respect for this guy has gone up so much tonight after watching that

I've always liked Pantera, and Phil has definatly earned my respect with his work and now I see him more grounded and as a real "able to suffer" person. I now respect him even more. Empowering and full of knowledge and experience in his own way is cool that he shares all this shit with us that have tried drugs and have been draged by them.

Thanks for the uploads, BlackieStuff...great stuff!

thank you for posting this.

I've always Admired and Respected Phil H. Anselmo ... True Idol of What to be , What not to be , And how to rebound one's life from the horror's curve that life can throw at you , "time after time." The True message is clear , He's giving back information that kids nowadays so godly need and deserve! Not watered down , cooking cut Daytime t.v. bullshit.... HE IS DR. PHIL ON ADDICTION

Holy Shit that was powerful! Glad to see Phil got clean and turned things around. Wow..just Wow!

Being an aspiring musician, myself, there is a world of questions I would have loved to have asked him about everything he just talked about. Most of these are not even music related; just about drug abuse, will, love, rise, fall, and all these different things. So much, that I'm surprised nobody from the audience really asked any questions like these. They were most -- to all -- music related, and I don't think that's right for other aspiring musicians. Lots and lots to consider for musicians.

More new found respect for you Philip. God bless you man.

Yeah. At first I had to work on my patience for a few minutes then slowly I adapted to his tempo. All the feeling he puts into his words makes me understand better than if any other dude had told the same story.

One of the best dudes outthere in Metal today 1st class guy, Legend in his own lifetime. Great to hear him talking about that stuff.

what a great interview

Thanks Blackie, this was amazing. Just curious, what all was edited out?

loved all 7 videos

Thanks for the upload man!!!

Thanx a lot for uploading.

AMEN. I download.If I like I buy. I support my bands/artists. The business needs to evolve.

good too see this respectable side of phil! Props brother if you ever see this keep clean and keep on rocking with down!

that was awesome, thanks for posting!

This, but I knew beforehand that he is quite inteligent and smart. Respect to a living legend.

Phil brings everything down to a very real level. Love that about his music, and him as an individual. THere's plenty of musicians who've destroyed themselves with drugs or booze; Phil's one of two that I've ever listened to speak on it in a very profound, scary way. The other that I can think of Nikki Sixx, but his "outreach" was a book and a cd. Not to say it didn't scare the bejesus out of me, but I'd rather see someone speak on it out of a good of their hearts.

Without downloading I wouldn't have been able to find many of the bands I listen to today. If I like them enough I could buy a shirt or go pay for a ticket to see them live. For me personally, I like to download music first to see if I even dig the band/ album. If I end liking it I try to buy it on CD.

very good interview. PHIL IS THE KING!!!!!

i agree this is classic footage right here

Either way - thanks for posting this, dude.

That was soooooooooooo amazingly satisfactory!

This whole thing was really good and I wish more singers from Metal did this same thing.

I love how Phil just says "see y'all later man" right after the guys question haha.

GLORY TO ALL THAT IS PHIL!, what a guy man, a heavy metal master

If Phil gets to do another session like this, they need to give him 3hrs! This just wasn't long enough.

Phil is incredible, this guy is tough as nails, he's seen hell and he's got the story too prove it.

best thing i have ever seen

Thanks for sharing the video bro, GETCHA' PULL!!!

whats name of the band that he said was his favourite? i enjoyed this interview really interesting and still motivating love you phil

it takes some really heavy metal balls to tell all the shit he's been into and tell it to a whole crowd. long live phillip anselmo!

wish I could see more of Phil.

This should be a required watch for college kids. There's a lot of truth in it.

Deep down he's STRONGER THAN ALL!!!!!!!

this interview session is fucking awesome!!! phil has some great advice!!!!

MetalMassacre45 took the words out of my mouth. Much but much respect for Phil, these words were an amazing inspiration to my future, thank you and the best of luck Phil Anselmo. PS: Pantera kicks ass. /m\

Thanx for uppin dude. Really!

I love this video, but I gotta say there's good metal today. I don't have much time to listen to music these days but the little I've heard blows my mind e.g. car bomb, cephalic carnage, mastodon

I wish I could of heard the rest, at the end we was like 'FOR THOSE WHO ARE LEAVING'

else was. Thanks Phil.
